One reason why we love great photographers is their ability to capture the world in a way that’s new and exciting. Cédric Houmadi does exactly that with his impressive aerial photos that feature some of the most beautiful landscapes ever.

The award-winning French photographer has been shooting in many countries including Egypt, Jordan, Dubai, Hawaii, Bali, USA, Japan and more. According to his website, “Cedric wishes to raise awareness about the environmental impact on our planet. His objective is to participate in Humanitarian Projects in order to pass on a message, that of the consequences of human beings on our planet”. Scroll down to see his amazing work.

Initially as a hobby, photography rapidly took over Cédric’s life after he started working for hotel chains. Now, the artist has an audience of more than 36K Instagram followers.

He has worked with brands such as Ford, Hilton, Bose, and Hyundai, as well as showing his work in personal exhibitions and being published by many popular magazines and websites. Also, Cédric has won 2nd place in Paris Aerial Photography Awards competition in 2020.

Created in tribute to one of the first aerial photos taken in 1858 over Paris by Gaspard-Félix Tournachon, the Paris Aerial Photography Awards competition is a big deal to many photographers around the world. 

“For my first participation in a competition, I am very happy to have won a prize,” Cédric said. “It was a great opportunity to show my work to professionals and to obtain, in a way, their recognition. I want to thank my friends for supporting me in my projects and for believing in me”.

This must be at least 100years old photo:) It's so urban area today that you can't take photos like this anymore without catching buildings, traffic jam or tourist busses

The Dolomites are beautiful, and these winding pass roads take you so close to the mountains.
